Hovannisian: I apologize if I caused public disappointment![]() June 15, 2013 - 17:05 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Those fleeing the country realize that emigration is a disaster, Heritage party leader said. Raffi Hovannisian expressed great concerns over the current emigration flows that can “bring about a national crisis.” Dwelling on the statement by Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan, who said that the opposition is as well to blame for the emigration, the party leader said, “I offer public apology if the measures I took fostered the emigration or caused disappointment with no victims. Many people mistake final victory for defeat. What was initiated 6 months ago is still in force.” He further stressed the need for the opposition either to join forces or to follow different paths. Grigoryan added that the situation around the world and particularly in the region is very difficult. The Armenian Defense Ministry has denied Azerbaijan's accusations of violating the ceasefire. Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan took to social media to thank his Lithuanian counterpart for the contribution. President of the Armenian parliament Alen Simonyan met with the Speaker of the Azerbaijani Milli Majlis Sahiba Gafarova. Partner news |
